St. Joseph Academy at St. Paul.

This spacious institution OF learning at
St. Paul, for the education of young ladies
is something more than an ordinary scho-
lastic institution. In it are taught many
other things OF practical use. The exhibit
recently which took place OF more
formal commencement exercises, oc-
cupies three large rooms. In the
first one was an elaborate display of fancy
needlework, plain sewing and the examina-
ton papers OF the scholars The fancy
needlewor was greatly admired by hosts
OF visitors, and would have done credit to
the older hands. In plain sewing the col
lection is very extensive and varied.
The exhibition papers were shown on the
tables, each paper dealing with the various
branches taught in the class written in
answer to questions by the examiners, and
shown entirely uncorrected just as the pu-
pills finished them. AS a rule, the papers
showed more clearly than could be done by
any formal exhibit the thorough training
the children have received. There are a
number OF maps drawn by the younger pu-
pills very accurately and creditably.
Passing from the large exhibition
room into smaller apartment, the visit
or found himself surrounded by most
tempting display OF good things in the edi-
BILE line, which showed skill and knowledge
on the part OF the youthful caterers to deli
cate caste. The art exhibit occupies the
entire first floor of the west wing Of the
academy. Many OF the pictures are re.
markedly we'll extended. The people OF
st. Paul thronged the rooms for two days
and warm appreciation was shown to the
work Of apt scholars and faithful teachers.

Marshfeld, Wis, Destroyed by Fire.

On Monday afternoon, on the 9th inst,
fire broke cut in the woodward OF Upham's
Manufacturing company and spread with
lightning like rapidity, in spite OF desper-
ate efforts on the part OF the citizens. At
3 o'clock the entire business part Of
the town was lost and the flames
continued to rage. Nothing could
be done to save them, and almost
beside themselves the people stood
around and saw the results OF years of
hard labor go down. Little could be
saved. Late in the evening the fierce ele-
ment was stopped when nothing more
could be destroyed. The entire business
porEon OF the town was burned
The losses cannot be estimated
closely, but will exceed, upon the
best Of calculation, 100000, and are
but partly insured. But one store was
saved. About fifteen hundred people were
without shelter. Upham,s planning mill
and several other mills and all the depot
buildings OF the Wisconsin Central have
burned down.
Marshfield, Wood county, Wis, is on
the main line OF the Wisconsin Central
railway. 1t is ISL miles from ST. Paul
and 2S1 miles from Chicago. It's popula-
tion is 1000. The principal business in
terests OF the place were it's saw mills,

Phil 4 rmour's Big Loss Of Pork.

One million two hundred and fifty thous-
and dollars went up in smoke at the Union
stock yards, Chicago. One OF the employees
OF the Chicago Packing and Provision com.
pany discovered a fire in the tank room. In a
lew moments one OF the tanks exploded scat
tering burning lard over the adjacent build
ngs, and a dozen separate fires were soon
competing with each other in the destruc-
tion OF the immense ablishment. Ex-
cept the curing room, in which we're 49,

building: and its contents are a total loss.
The curing room, 1OOx15O feet, and four
stories high, lost its roof, but stone fire
VALE saved its contents, a portion Of
them in a roasted condition. On
the east side was the warehouse, l20 by
400 feet with four stories and q basement.
The two upper floors at the south end
were used for killing purposes. In the
warehouse were $4,000 barrels OF mess

Conviction Of Jake Sharp.

& e
In New York Wednesday, the 29th inst,
was the thirty fourth and last day Of the
trial OF Jacob Sharp, and it ended in convic.
ton. The aged defendant appeared much
more feeble than usual, walk ing
with much difficulty to his place.
After an address for the defence
Col. Fellows followed for the prosecution.
The evidence was ample to show that
Sharp was guilty Of bribery. The history
OF Sharp's operations and the evidence in
all the Doodle trials were reviewed at length
and Sharp referred to as "a man honored
and respected up to his fall, who reared O
large family OF children and grandchildren
until the tempter came and debauched
him." Sharp, Forshay & Kerr were re-
sponsible for the raising OF 100000 by
the Broadway Surface company, which
large sum had mysteriously disappeared.
The judge charged, and after an absence
OF thirteen minutes returned into court
with verdict OF guilty with recommen-
dation to mercy The aged prisoners
head dropped. He was removed to the
Ludlow street jail. Sentence will be pass
ed July Is. The penalty is not more than
ten years at hard labor or fine OF So, 900,
or both. new trial will be asked. The
verdict was reached on the first ballot.
AS Sharp stepped to the walk on his arrival
atthe jail hesaid: Boys, now it's all over
tell them never gave one penny to Aid.
Fulgraff or any other alderman, and had
no hand in bribing the alderman" With
this the old man seemed to brake down.
Sharp was tried for bribing members Of
the board OF aldermen OF 1884 to grant a
franchise to the Broadway Surface Rail
way company. The franchise was passed
over the mayors veto. During the past
two years several of the accused alder.
men, beginning with Jaehne, were convict
ed OF accepting brides, and sent to Sing
Sing prison. Other members OF the board,
like Fulgraff turned states evidence. and
still others betook themselves to Canada.

End Of the National Fiscal Year i.

Washington Special: The fiscal year
closed with the close of business on Thurs.
day June the 3Oth inst. An approximate
statement can be given as to the fiscal re-
suits OF the year, and it will not material
~ differ from the tabulations which are
not generally made before September
The receipts for the fiscal year exceed the
estimates very considerably. The receipts
from internal revenue are Sis, $780,
600. This is 100000 more than
the estimates, and is attrib-
uted to some. extent to the large receipts
from the tax upon oleomargarine. The re-
ceipts from customs will be about $21S,-
900, 600, or $S,OOO,0O0 more than the
treasury estimates. The estimates were
made by Mr.. Manning. This amount is
more than was ever received before from
customs in any fiscal year excepting 1882.
But not withstanding the large receipts for
this year the treasury officials do not ex
pect that there will be continued
growth in the receipts from the customs in
the next year as there has been in the last,
and the estimates OF the custom inco for
the next fiscal year are Sis, 600. 900.
There is nothing in the condition OF the
treasury to Indicate ma terial reduction in
the revenues or to make it seem probable
that the question OF the reduction OF the
surplus will not be vital one for long
time to come. The surplus is very much re-
duced from the large figures OF one wear
ago, and it is probably not more than one.
half OF that sum. There will be many
new demands upon the treasury because the
appropriations for the new fiscal year be-
come available, and among the immediate
demands are for the per cents called and
payable from after July to the amount
Of $40, 700, 600; S12,00O,OOO for pension,
and large sums for other purposes.

Ireland was conquered by Henry H.,
King of England, who received the
submission of the Irish princes in
LIT. The Irish parliament, which
is said to have dated from 1173, re-
manned in existence until 1900. It
made laws for Ireland, although the
governor OF the kingdom Of Ireland
was appointed by the sovereign of
England. In 1900 the votes Of suff-
Gent number of Irish members of par
lament having been bought by the
British government, the act of union
was passed by which tho Irish Parlia-
ment went out OF existance by its
own consent. Since then the British
government alone has made the laws
under which the Irish people have
lived, not however, without emphatic
protests, sometimes yerging upon
revolu tionary acts.

Advices from Honolulu shows that
condition of affairs prevails there
which is but little short OF a revolu-
ton. The king is fortifying himself
in his palace, and great discomfort
prevails among the people. The Brit
ish and American residents have
asked their consuls to request their
governments to send war vessels to
the islands to protect them. The
King has been very extravaganza,
spending large sums OF money useless
" and failing to make needed public
improvements. This has contributed
to the dissatisfaction among the peo-
pie. They are represented as heartily
tired OF the king business, anyway,
and are fully alive to the absurdity OF
allowing themselves to become the
mere poppets OF kingly power.
